Bath re-enamelling at your home in St Brides
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. Typical jobs include a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and wear marks under the taps, across Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

What affects the price in St Brides
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no area surcharge for St Brides. What changes the price is:
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
For a price in St Brides, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Common questions in St Brides
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Most baths are done in a day, ready the following day. We give you timings with the quote.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
How it works
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes most of the day, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in St Brides
Previous coatings can fail too, peeling around the waste or bubbling. We strip what’s failing and start again.
Common reasons people in St Brides contact us are:
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- Several chips and rust patches
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A coating lifting around the plughole
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How the room is protected while they work
Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- A bath split right through the body
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, typically one day, with the bath back in use the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why us?
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Everything repaired in place
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- We leave the room as we found it
